This blog will be about whatever suits my fancy. Chances are, it will concentrate on media misrepresentations of the American "Black community", Black politics, politics in general, and whatever else I want to mentally masturbate about.

Kem: Intimacy

It's definitely a singing jazz album. If you think about the movies that have scenes in the smokey jazz club where you have the sophisticated/hipsters/lovers/those getting their mack on, and you have the singer fronting a small ensemble as the hero or protagonist comes in and settles down and orders a shot of some mixed drink or maybe a drink over the rocks from the foine waitress in the slinky dress...

This is it.

You put this on for a dinner with candles or when you draw the bath with bubbles, candles, body oils and incense. This is when you want to do the long slow grind not the bumping uglies slammin mcnasty. This is on when you don't have to rush and you can lay on the bed, butt nekkid without having to worry about kids coming in and seeing the "after glow."

This is chill. This is mature. It sort of hurts that he sounds like Al Jarreau, but this is GOOD MUSIC. "Share My Life" is better than the first release, "Why Would You Stay" and I considered that one to be one of 2010's best songs. There's a "duet" with Jill Scott that's not really a duet but she does have a speaking/spoken word part that displays her spoken word ability, which is damn good.
